About a Wardrobe: A Rising Faction (Sometimes I Pretend to Have Style)
July 26th, 2009I’m a huge geek. I love to live on the cutting (sometimes uncomfortable) edge of technology. I know tons of computer-related information, and don’t make an effort to hide it. This is a huge part of my personality, but there are certain related stereotypes (read: nerd) that I actively attempt to avoid. Enter: acne treatment, spending time in the sun, working out, and (more recently) attempting to dress fashionably. I approach style from a more scientific angle. I might notice an feature or way to wear an article of clothing that I have identified as "cool," and work from I know about simple style generalizations. Of course I always go shopping with at least one girl whose taste I trust.
I love to document, so here I go.
I noticed today that there is an immerging schism in the different types of clothes I have. There are some new clothes, "the new style," which are significantly outnumbered my old clothes, "the old style." Today I conscientiously dressed in "the old style."
Code is Poetry
June 18th, 2009I recently ordered a new mug from zazzle.com. “Code is poetry,” it says on one side, with my favorite programming language, C♯, on the other. Code really is poetry, and now let me relate a memory that I thought of on my drive home from work today. (Sorry in advance. This post doesn’t have very much focus.)
“Good” Music
December 26th, 2008One of my friends got a lot of money in iTunes credit for Christmas, so he asked me for a bunch of good songs. I went through my media library looking for songs, picking out ones that appealed enough to me for me to send the title and artist to him. I decided to not let the list go to waste, so I went through the chat logs and pulled out he proper messages. I could go through the list and refine it, but that’s now worth the trouble. 
Tech Crocs for Christmas
December 25th, 2008One of the many wonderful presents (thanks Mom, Dad, brothers, sister) I got this Christmas was a pair of Virginia Tech branded “Mammoth” Crocs from my Dad. I have to say… I’ve been skeptical about Crocs, but not only are these things warm and comfy, but they show my Hokie pride as well.
